04The Spread: Best vs Cheapest Yard
The gap between the day's dearest and cheapest market shows how wide the buying opportunity is — and whether it's worth carting produce further out.
A spread of ₹856 (18.2%) across reporting yards means a seller near a higher-paying mandi can realise meaningfully more — provided cartage and grading don't eat the difference.

Over the last two weeks, Safflower prices at APMC Latur APMC ranged between ₹3,900 and ₹5,700, with the average around ₹5,420.
